Origin of the report
Internship program of Daffodil International University is an undergraduate
requirement for the BBA programs student. The main reason of internship
program is to fulfill the requirements as the part of my BBA program and also
the student gets exposed to the job world. The main challenge as an intern is
translate all theoretical concepts in practical work which I have learned in my
BBA program.
This report is the result of three months long internship program conducted in
VDAL. It is prepared as a requirement for the completion of the BBA program
of Daffodil International University. I need to submit this report based on the
‘marketing strategies of VDAL’. As a student of Business Administration , I
was assigned my course instructor Sharmin Jahan to involve in this study. My
course instructor has advised me to develop a thorough understanding of the
“sales & marketing strategies of VDAL”. I have completed my three months
long internship program from VDAL where my supervisor was Mr. Moslem
(senior manager) & Mr. Shadvi (Executive of R&D) of VDAL.
Objective of the report
Objectives of the report are:
To present a company over view of VDAL.
To describe marketing strategies of VDAL.
To present SWOT & PESTLE analysis of VDAL.
To find out some problems that VDAL is currently facing.
To suggest some recommendations of those identified problems.

Scope of the report
The scope of the study is the Marketing strategies of VDAL. The report
covers detail about the various type of services ,overview and different
departments in VDAL. The main focus is on analysis of the marketing
strategies of this company.
Methodology
I have collected data from primary and secondary sources for this report.
Primary sources :
Primary data was collected from the practical work in the office
which I had been doing in my three months long internship
program.
I also gather information by visit market place with senior
employees for marketing purpose of VDAL.
Secondary sources:
Secondary data was collected from VDAL’S official Website
,journals.
I also gather information frommy Textbooks, Articles from RMG
website, several other reports&other internet sources.
Limitations
The report has been prepared by the feedback of company employees and
information which collected by the marketing department and also the
knowledge which I gathers from my internship program. Marketing department
is very confidential about their terms and condition. They never discussed their
private information with an internship student. Because, every organization has
their own business secret, rules & system. Another problem was limited time for
this study. Though it was three months long program but not enough time to get
full knowledge of the marketing department. Although there were many
limitations but I have tried my best and I give my best effort to furnish this
report successfully.

Segmentation, Targeting and Positioning of VDAL
In marketing, segmenting, targeting and positioning (STP) is a broad framework
that summarizes and simplifies the process of market segmentation.
Targeting is the process of identifying the most attractivesegments from
the segmentation stage, usually the ones most profitable for the business.
©Daffodil International University 21
Segmentation
VDAL doing 2 kinds of segmentation -1) Demographic & 2)Geographic
Demographic Segmentation :
Age : VDAL manufactured age based product . For an example: they
make kids product , young age peoples products , and adult products as
their buyers demand.
Gender: VDAL manufactured various kind of denim product which is
based on gender. They makes different denim products for gents ,ladies &
unisex Example: five pocket denim for gents, skirt’s for women, jacket
item for ladies and gents both and most of the kids item is unisex item.
Religion: VDAL’s most of the buyers are Christians. They like stretch
denim or DIY denim product because their point of view & culture is not
same as us. VDAL makes denim product as buyers order. So, in this point
religion matters here.
Geographic segmentation :Geographic segmentation is when a business
divides its market on the basis of geography. VDAL also doing geographic
segmentations. Because,VDAL’S main buyers are from different country. Most
of their buyers are American and European. Buyers product design wash
everything is different here.
©Daffodil International University 22
Targeting
VDAL follows differentiated Marketing Strategy. Because, they makes product,
price, placement and promotional program customized different segment for
each.VDAL’S targeted customers are American and European .Because , there
are huge demand of denim product. American and European market are biggest
denim market and loyal market to do denim business. American market worth
now $90 Billion and European market worth now €14 billion . That’s why
VDAL wants more attraction from other stranger buyers from US & Europe.
VDAL always try to stablish a loyal B2B relationship with his all buyer’s.
Positioning

Bangladesh.VDAL’S market position is very good and strong now. They have
loyal buyers. Skilled workers .strong foreign expertise. Day by day they
developing their production. They get rid out of from competitors threats by
giving their best effort and best premium product in low price.

4ps of VDAL
Product
Vintage denim makes different kinds of denim product . they makes 30%
products for men and 70% products for ladies and children.Product refers to a
good or service that a company offers to customers. Ideally, a product should
fulfill an existing consumer demand. Or a product may be so compelling that
consumers believe they need to have it and it creates a new demand.

Price
VDAL always try to sell their best product in low price to their buyer’s then
other competitors. They follow competitive pricing strategy. Price varies on
wash, kinds of fabrics and design. Price also depends on size of order or
quantity. Large amount of order = low price and small amount of order = high
price. But they always maintain their quality for long lasting and best comfort .

Place
When a company makes decisions regarding place, they are trying to
determine where they should sell a product and how to deliver the
product to the market. The goal of business executives is always to get
their products in front of the consumers that are the most likely to buy
them.VDAL send their product through authorized Covered van's of
custom to C&F (clearance & forwarding) department of custom . then
custom authority send it via ship to directly buyers address. buyers
receive their product within 60 days from production time.
some times in emergency they send their product through authorized
covered van to logistics & courier delivery department of airport . then
Airport authority send product to its buyers address. Global affairs is
another place for VDAL .they imported raw material from global
affairs.Bonded ware house is a good place for VDAL to deliver product
fast to their customer.A bonded warehouse, is a building or secured area
in which dutiable goods stored manufacturing operations without
payment of duty.
Promotion
VDAL is a manufacturer denim company.So, their whole business is
B2B(business to business) type. That’s why they doing all kind of B2B based
promotion. Here is list of some promotional activities what VDAL currently
doing -
VDAL promote their product by word of mouth. Example : In buyers
meeting they talk directly with their buyers. Then they talk about their
technology , their production capacity costing etc.
They promote their product direct approach to their customer. If they saw
their buyer has positive attraction about their company then they showed
some of their product to their buyer then try to attract buyers .
©Daffodil International University 29
They promote their product by doing yearly convention. In every year all
garments owners, top level employees & various kind of buyer’s attend
into a arranged place for meeting. To know something new. In that time
VDAL discussed about their product ,technology ,environment, workers,
product quality etc. so, interested buyers get connected with them.
Buyer’s build a new relation with them from the yearly convention.
Development center is another good place for their promotion. Because,
this is a good place where they showing their specialized to develop all
kind of denim to their buyers.
When merchandiser meet with buyers they promote their product by
direct sampling. In this case they showed every possible details about
their product. Like , fabric, design, strap, zipper, button, waist band, fly ,
belt loop etc .
Merchandising tour is a good option for them to promote their product.
Because, in this tour merchandiser meets with other merchandisers and
buyers . every merchandiser discussed about their product , quality,
design etc with other merchandiser and buyers. If any buyers get
impressed they gives product order .
VDAL gives 8% direct commission to their employee to fill up target
what VDAL desired. For an example: VDAL target that they want to sell
1,50,000 pc’s of denim product in 15 days. Then they offer their
employees if they fill up that target in a particular time then everyone will
get total 8% commission from that production.
